摘要:
A magnetoresistive effect device is formed by layering a nonmagnetic Co oxide film, a pinned magnetization layer made of Co, a nonmagnetic layer made of Cu, a free magnetization layer made of NiFe in this order on a substrate made of glass or Si. By arranging the nonmagnetic Co oxide film in contact with the pinned magnetization layer, it is possible to produce a magnetoresistive effect device with a high saturation field and a high sensitivity.
